This carrier occupies two adjacent sites over 700 metres long in total with loading bays for hundreds of vehicles. The nearer building is nearly 400 metres long, visible as a white band on the horizon in long views from the south. The location is thought to have been chosen for its proximity to Coventry airport at Baginton, though how much mail now goes by air is not known. Signage directs traffic to "… Worldwide National Hub". A wintry shower passes southwards.
